The weather is starting to cool off, which means you’re probably on the hunt for heavier bedding, especially of the down or down alternative variety. Good bedding isn’t terribly hard to find, but it gets even better when you score it for a great price. With fallen leaves just beginning to scatter the ground, it couldn’t be a better time to start your search; it’s not so cold that you’re scrambling for last-minute bedding layers, and it’s still early enough in the season to score some amazing deals. Like right now at Macy’s! The editor-favorite Martha Stewart Essentials Down Alternative Comforter is a whopping 77 percent off (!!) — but not for long.

Usually priced at $120, the comforter is currently just $24.99 through 10/31 during Macy’s Friends & Family Sale. It’s versatile enough to use as a duvet insert or on its own, whether you choose white; reversible navy, burgundy, and gray combinations; or one of a variety of plaids. Though minimalist in styling, the available colors provide a canvas for accents like throw blankets and pillows that create the bedscape of your dreams.

“Lying under it feels like being enveloped in a plush cloud that’s always cool to the touch,” shared an AT contributor who tested the comforter for herself. “On the heat spectrum, I never feel like I’m drowning under layers of thick fabric, while the puffy baffle-box construction keeps my husband cozy and warm. Even better? It’s pretty lightweight for a duvet but still provides warmth, thanks to the hypoallergenic polyester fiberfill.”

The comforter, which is ideal for year-round use, is also OEKO-TEX certified, meaning it’s free of harmful chemicals. “My skin is SUPER sensitive to certain materials and this blanket is like silk to my skin — even before it’s washed 20 times!!” said a Macy’s customer, who bought two for their family but wishes they had bought more. “It’s a perfect weight, washes up great, and my family fights over the ‘soft blanket.'”

But the customer review that says it all, IMO? “Soft, smooth feel, and light enough to keep me from overheating yet heavy enough to keep me warm. Perfect.” All in all, a major steal, but you’ll need to act quickly — the sale ends Oct. 31!
